A heart that loves is always young.

A man in love mistakes a pimple for a dimple.

Being in love is like feeling the sun from both sides.

He that plants trees loves others besides himself.

Love’s pure silver flame
gives each innermost spirit
invisible warmth.

Whatever you do… love those who love you.

The desire for possession is insatiable, to such a point that it can survive even love itself. To love, therefore, is to sterilize the person one loves.

But that intimacy of mutual embarrassment, in which each feels that the other is feeling something, having once existed, its effect is not to be done away with.

I like not only to be loved, but also to be told that I am loved. I am not sure that you are of the same kind. But the realm of silence is large enough beyond the grave. This is the world of literature and speech and I shall take leave to tell you that you are very dear.

’Tis what I love determines how I love.
